Einleitung

Zu Schritt 1 der Anleitung

This guide will show a step-by-step process of how to remove and replace your old, broken, or dirty fan blades. It will also provide some tips to stop your fan from making rattling noises.

Safety Tips:

Unplug your fan– you should never attempt to clean a fan while it’s plugged in.
It is highly recommended to wear a mask and/or protective eyewear to protect yourself from dust.
Make sure not to drop any of the lubricant greases in the ball bearing.

This process only applies to traditional tower fans. Therefore, if you have a blade-less fan, the process will vary.

Good luck!
